Notes
- Did you know you can purchase pineapple spears all peeled and sliced? You'll still need to dice them, but it's a nice shortcut.
- Two cups of diced pineapple equal about one-half of a whole pineapple.
- Select a ripe pineapple for the best flavor. Look for one that has a slightly soft exterior and a fragrant aroma. Avoid pineapples that are overly green or have brown spots.
- I prefer a chunky salsa texture, for this recipe, but if you want a smoother salsa, you can pulse the ingredients in a food processor or blender.
- Pineapple pairs well with a variety of ingredients. Consider including diced tomatoes, black beans or avocado in the salsa.
- Let the salsa sit for at least 30 minutes before serving.
